The Hard Move is a Powered by the Apocalypse (PbtA) RPG discussion podcast. Each episode, host Sidney Icarus will chat with a guest about a single move, diving into how the move works mechanically, how players can use it narratively to drive the fiction, and how GMs can react to the move. Join us every other Wednesday as I welcome a new guest to name their move and play to find out what happens. Please subscribe on Spotify, iTunes, Google Play, or wherever you find podcasts.

Spenser Starke and I prepare for the worst as we take a look at The Abyss Stares Back from The Veil. An interesting move, we discuss as much about how we love unpacking the poetry of the move as we do with how challenging it is to engage with fully. It really is like nothing else out there.

In the Patreon cut, Spenser and I also talk about the changes we'd like to see this move make, and specifically how it can be so inaccessible to the people approaching it. Available at patreon.com/thehardmove
